Sedgwick County DUI Lawyer – Julesburg & Surrounding Areas
If you’ve been arrested for DUI in Sedgwick County, your case will be heard at the Sedgwick County Courthouse in Julesburg (315 Cedar Street). Sedgwick may be one of the smallest counties in Colorado, but DUI cases here are still prosecuted aggressively by the 13th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.
DUI Charges in Sedgwick County
In 2024, 277 misdemeanor DUI cases were filed across the 13th Judicial District’s county courts, along with 32 felony DUI cases. While Sedgwick accounts for only a small share of those numbers, drivers here face the same serious consequences as anywhere else: jail, license revocation, probation, fines, and long-term collateral consequences.
Enforcement in Sedgwick is concentrated on:
- I-76 near the Nebraska border
- Highway 385 and Highway 138
Most DUI arrests come from:
- Colorado State Patrol (Sterling Troop Office)
- Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office
Misdemeanor DUIs are handled in County Court, while felony DUIs (such as a 4th offense) are filed in District Court.
DMV License Hearings
A DUI arrest here usually means two separate cases:
- A criminal case in Sedgwick County Court.
- A civil driver’s license revocation case with the Colorado DMV.
You have only 7 days from your arrest or notice of revocation to request a DMV hearing. Miss that deadline and your license will be revoked automatically. DMV hearings are held by telephone, and strategy matters in deciding whether to subpoena the arresting officer.
Why Experience Matters in Sedgwick DUI Cases
Even though Sedgwick sees fewer DUI cases than larger counties, the impact of a charge can be life-changing. Prosecutors and judges here take impaired driving seriously, and having an attorney who knows how to navigate both rural courts and the 13th Judicial District system can make a real difference.
